Why Granville Homeowners Choose Hello Gravel
Granville is a small but steadily expanding community with a city population of 2,100. A growth rate of 1.20% annually indicates measured development—enough to sustain steady demand for residential and small-scale commercial projects without the volatility of boom towns. Local climate and geography shape material needs: with 228 sunny days, 35.50 inches of annual rainfall, and hardiness zone 8b, homeowners and contractors can work outdoors much of the year but must plan for both dry conditions and periodic wet spells. That means a broad mix of bulk materials is useful—stable base materials and sand for durable drives and patios, clean fill and topsoil for grading and garden beds, plus mulches and organic amendments for plant health. Proximity to a metro area of 2.6+ million expands supplier options, but regional sourcing still makes choosing the right color, texture, and gradation important for performance and appearance.Popular Projects in Granville This Season

Frequently Asked Questions - Granville Gravel Delivery
Everything you need to know about gravel delivery in Granville.
Homeowners in Granville typically choose from a range of aggregates depending on function and look, including options used for base layers, top dressing, and decorative surfaces. When selecting material, consider load-bearing needs, drainage, appearance, and maintenance rather than a single product. Use our material calculator and quiz to compare options and match a material to your specific project and local climate.
Freeze-thaw cycles in West Illinois can shift and settle loose materials and cause cracking in solid surfaces if drainage and base preparation are inadequate. Choose materials and installation methods that allow for movement and good drainage, and plan for occasional re-grading or top dressing after winter. Proper compaction, a stable base, and preventing standing water will reduce freeze-thaw damage.
Hello Gravel requires a 3-ton minimum order and typically offers standard delivery in 2+ business days, with next-day delivery available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Deliveries arrive by contracted dump trucks (often tri-axle), so you should ensure a clear route, sufficient turning space, and no low overhead wires where trucks will operate. If access is tight, we can sometimes arrange smaller trucks but additional fees or longer lead times may apply.
Start by assessing slope, soil type, and where water currently flows on your property; materials with good permeability and proper base layers help manage runoff. Combine the right aggregate selection with simple drainage measures like graded slopes, swales, or French drains to reduce erosion risk. If the area is especially wet or steep, consult with a local pro to match material, grading, and any necessary retaining or erosion control features.
Local rules for driveways, major landscaping changes, or large fills vary by city and county, so check with Granville city hall or the county planning office before starting work. Permits may be required for changes that affect stormwater, right-of-way, or construction of driveways and retaining walls. If you need help, our team can point you to common local contacts, but always verify requirements before delivery.
Late spring through early fall is generally the easiest time for deliveries and installs in Granville because ground is thawed and weather is more predictable. Avoid heavy freeze-thaw periods and very wet seasons when possible, since soggy ground complicates compaction and truck access. If you need work done in shoulder seasons, plan extra time and expect possible rescheduling due to weather.
Clear a direct access path for the truck, remove low-hanging lines or obstacles, and mark the preferred drop location with flags or cones so the driver can see it from the road. Protect nearby lawns, driveways, and hardscapes with plywood or temporary boards if concerned about truck tracking or load placement. Let us know about any tight turns, culverts, or private drives when ordering so we can coordinate the right truck and placement plan.
We coordinate deliveries with local haulers using dump trucks; standard delivery is included in many areas with the 2+ business day window, and next-day options are available for a fee if ordered before noon CST. Drivers may offer tailgate spreading at their discretion; you can request it at checkout but it is not guaranteed and will be assessed for safety and feasibility on arrival. If you need spreading or grading beyond a simple tailgate, plan to hire a contractor or arrange for separate installation services.
Costs vary with project size, material choice, and site difficulty, but small jobs like a fresh layer for a short driveway or garden bed often run in the low hundreds to a few thousand dollars, while full driveway replacements or large landscape builds can range higher. Delivery and access constraints, the amount of base preparation required, and any machinery or labor for spreading and compaction are the main cost drivers. Contact our team with project dimensions for a more specific estimate and use our calculator to get a ballpark material quantity and price.
Maintenance varies: permeable aggregates often need periodic raking and top dressing, while harder-pack surfaces may require occasional regrading or patching after freeze-thaw cycles. Lifespan depends on preparation, use, and drainage—well-prepared installations last much longer than quick surface patches. Plan for routine maintenance checks after winter and address drainage issues early to extend the life of any material.
Because Hello Gravel sources materials from nearby suppliers, texture, color, and composition will reflect local geology and can vary from photos or samples. If you have a color preference or specific texture in mind, include it in Order Notes and our team will do their best to match you with a local supplier that fits your needs. Expect natural variation and contact customer service if the material appears significantly different from what you ordered.

We cannot get out of the truck and manually spread it. However, depending on the location, safety, and comfortability of the driver – we may be able to tailgate spread your material. This involves pulling the truck forward as material is being dumped to make it easier for you to distribute material after delivery.
The minimum order size is 3 tons.
